This bonus episode, requested by Patreon backer Brian, asks whether there's a connection between the 1981 AD&D supplement Fiend Folio and the 500-pound gorilla of British gaming, Warhammer! My answer: kind of! In the podcast, I reference a few blogs and sites you can check out. For critical analysis of early Warhammer and lots of other stuff, check out the Realm of Zhu! Or just read Zhu's article at We Are the Mutants. There's a treasure trove of interviews with old GW and Citadel hands at Realm of Chaos 80s, although the blog updates infrequently these days. Just look for the interviews sidebar on the left-hand side. Plus, if you look at the video that's currently on the front page, you can see me standing at the Helsreach table at around 50 seconds in.

We've spent 70-ish episodes going through the Fiend Folio. So what have we learned? Join me for this wrapup of the second season, in which I talk about why I think you have to approach this book differently from the original Monster Manual.
